Esports Club Kyiv and Tricked will meet in the group stage of the Elisa Invitational Spring 2022 tournament. Regarding Tricked, sniper Lucky returned to them, who played in Astralis, but he did not suit the organization. Not to say that he coped with his tasks, he is not ready for tier-1 teams. That's the level of the Tricked team at the moment, it's perfect for him. It can be seen that he is able to reach a completely different level, but for this you need to practice shooting a little and change your playstyle. EC Kyiv is a team capable of fighting against tier-1.5 teams, but they haven't found success yet. Both teams have 1-1 statistics in the tournament.

Prediction for the match Esports Club Kyiv vs Tricked
The Kyivans are the nominal favorite, but I would still hope for Lucky to join the team, I think the Danes will be able to show themselves a little better, and this "a little better" is clearly enough to wrest at least a card from EC Kyiv. The people of Kiev tend not to end the meeting dry. Tricked will be able to find the strength in himself to win his pick, based on statistics, with a huge degree of probability it will be the Vertigo card. Regarding the whole meeting, it is difficult to predict the exact outcome, but I am sure that the Danes will be able to show a small character. I would advise you to watch the first map of the meeting in live, in order to understand how Lucky, who returned to the walls of the organization, will prove himself, and then, based on what he saw, bet on the second one. My pre-match bet is Handicap (+1.5) on cards for Tricked.
